Recent reviews
Many of these summarisation tools have stopped working, so I created one for myself called "Hyperlink Summariser." In addition to summarising the current page, it can also summarise links from the page without leaving it. This was my main use case, as I often jump from hyperlink to hyperlink and get sidetracked.
